Abstract: Abstract The Itapema Formation in the Santos Basin is described as a carbonate coquina interval, a type of sedimentary rock composed mainly by shells and their fragments. These rocks have different textural characteristics related to… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Drowning unconformities are surfaces characterized on seismic data by high amplitude contrast between deepwater and shallow water facies. Such surfaces are created by the covering of the platform by onlapping siliciclastic sediments or other… read more here.
